Pebbles

Okay, sad news time.
TW: depressing
SpoilerSo... my parents have been living separately for the last 16 months-ish, but I've still been seeing my dad a lot, and he's still been at my house almost every day, and sleeping overnight on the couch a bunch.
That... all changed today.
My dad is moving into an apartment.
He's not going to be home anymore.
They said at least four months, but maybe longer.
That he might be back by October...
They're not divorced.
They say they don't believe in divorce.
But...
I feel like... the ground dropped from underneath me... again.
Veil only got 9 minutes on her phone today...
I got 57 words from her today.
I... miss her so much.
I still don't have an appetite.
I feel like giving up.
I had multiple mental breakdowns today...
*sighs*
I'm just... so done.
I wanna go home, but nowhere feels like home...
Except maybe Veil's or Shallan and Radiant's house...
But they're all gone until Monday...
I don't know what to do with myself anymore...
So, there's all the depressing stuff.
Sorry bout that.

My phone case got a new sticker!!!
Previously it was a chibi-style Maddison from Hamilton, and now we have:
SpoilerTA-DA!!
Also, yes, I know the case is scratched and breaking and I need a new one, but I keep spending the tiny bits of money I find/earn on art supplies instead. ;-;
Also!!!
Sticker hack:
SpoilerIf you wipe the surface with an alcohol wipe, then put the sticker on, smooth it on the surface, and apply lots of pressure, it works pretty good.
BUT-
if you add a layer of clear nail polish over the whole thing and let it dry, it stays on so much longer!!! and if the sticker starts to peel off after a while and you aren't ready to change it (let's be honest, guys, Etsy stickers are expensive) you can add another coat and it'll help stretch the life of the sticker out!!
You just have to use some nail polish remover over the sticker before you can get it off.
It also might have negative side effects with whatever surface you're stickering, so be careful
Anyway!
Next in line (after we say goodbye to the sisters) for the phone case is chibi-style Aaron Burr (also from Hamilton-)
Also
SpoilerI'm trying to post something positive so that I have an excuse to spill everything else later.
Don't read my next few unless you're ready for sadness/depression/whatever else
I'll TW them.

I have no idea who would see this, but I really need someone to talk to.
i have 20-25 minutes.
if anyone wants to pm me, it'd be really appreciated.

*sighs*
You know...
This is the first day that I haven't called Veil in... like... months.
She's away for the next three days (ish)
I woke up at 5:30 and walked over to say goodbye this morning.
She'll have limited access to her phone, and therefore, to me.
We're talking very limited.
As in, I got to text her for twelve minutes before her phone was collected again.
I have officially been awake and going for 16 hours and 30 minutes.
I haven't really gotten anything done, including basic self-care, like eating and drinking.
I had work to do this morning, but I, instead, flopped in the middle of the floor and lay there for an hour because I was too depressed to move.
I missed guitar and uke practice, fricked up art, almost fell asleep during math, upset everyone, and got my phone taken for 8 hours this morning.
I have forced down emotions and tears all day, and now I'm too numb to care.
I have a headache, I'm dizzy, I have no appetite...
Not thirsty...
I feel like a zombie.
A really lonely and depressed one.
I just want to curl up in someone's arms and cry...
I think having physical touch as your primary love language is the worst one.
I just... feel so alone...
thanks for reading my emotional dump
assuming at least 1 person did.

Therapist: What do we do when we are sad?
Me: Add to cart?
Therapist: No.
I don't struggle with depression.
Like, at this point I have it down.
I'm good at depression.*feels myself disassociating and staring off into space*
*shifts my eyes to try and snap out of it*
*starts staring into space in the new direction*Me: I'm depressed.
Therapist: They're depressed.
Doctor: They're depressed.
My parents: Are they, though?SpoilerGUYS!!!! WHY IS IT THAT WHEN I'M DEPRESSED LOOKING AT MENTAL HEALTH MEMES MAKES EVERYTHING SO MUCH BETTER?!

Pull on her oversizedSweatshirt,Pull up the hood.Turn out the light,Slip under the blanket,Grab my pillow and hold itTightly,Pretending…That I’m not soAlone.Hiding in the dark,Finally lettingEverything out.A crying, shiveringMess.Dying to have someoneWith me,Yet still so alone.Wishing I wasThat innocent childAgain.Cared for and held,Tiny,Cradled in someone’sArms.Wishing I wasn’t so needy.So clingy.Wishing I was smaller.Smaller and younger,Held,Safe…Reality is different.Reality isCold,Cruel,Lonely…I can’t shove my feelingsAway anymore.As much as I want to,I can’t be who I want.That’s not reality.I feel so cold.So scared and alone.Uncomforted.Who knew lonelinessCould physically hurt?The empty ache in myChest,The tears burning inMy eyes.So alone,So scared,Hurting.Spiraling as theNight gets longer,Darker and colder.I’m a stranger to myOwn family.I feel like a ghost withMy friends.DriftingUnsureInvisible, maybe?But emotionally tiny.Physically…Tallest and strongest…The most broken,But good at fakingStrength.So fragile,So small,Scared of everything.But tough on the outside.An actor.A really good one.My stage makeup isSo thick and heavy.The opposite ofWhat I wantIn myself.~ Stick 6-5-24 -
